I personally use this software a lot (to create most of the images for this website), and just love it. Apart from the fact that it is a completely free image editing tool, here are some of the features that I like most about it:

Unlimited Undo:

I am not an advanced user, so keep on making lots of mistakes in my edits. Paint.net provides unlimited undo, and redo. So, no matter what mess I create, I can always revert it back to any step of my image editing.

Simple and Intuitive Interface:

The interface is really easy to use. It provides a tabbed document display, and provides a live thumbnail of all the images. All other functionalities are well placed, and can be easily found.

Layers:

It provides options to create rich layers, something available only in expensive image editors.

Special Effects:

It provides lot of options for special effects, including, blurring, sharpening, red-eye removal, distortion, noise, and embossing are included. Also provides unique 3D Rotate/Zoom effect that makes it very easy to add perspective and tilting. It also lets you tweak an image’s brightness, contrast, hue, saturation, curves, and levels.

Powerful Tools:

It provides some really powerful tools for creating shapes, Gradient Tool, Magic wand for selecting regions of similar color, and the Clone Stamp for copying or erasing portions of an image.
